The Brew Noob

Remember when we wrote about Imperial Stout Troopers? Just like the series that is it’s namesake, the brewers at New England decided to make a “Special Edition” of the beer.

But it’s not a sequel; unlike George Lucas’ calculated attempt to make you buy the newest edition, this version only slightly changes the appearance of the label to placate Mr. Lucas’ concern over his trademarked characters.  I’ve also heard it has persuasive powers to turn you to the dark side of the stout…

Like it’s namesake, a good imperial stout will be best when served “a long, long time ago”, from a brewery far away…

It’s no coincidence that many beer geeks are also geeks in other interests as well. Looks like St. Patrick is about to be displaced by a new icon this year…
